Import Tips
• Provide porcelain certification with absorption ≤0.5% via ASTM C373; artificial coloring may affect classification
• Document as individual cubes if not on backing to prevent set classification under 6914
• Avoid common pitfall of importing with mortar/adhesive, which could reclassify as finished installation kits
